I've tried both iOS and Android. Android is better for me. It is more advanced OS. Yes iOS is more secure. But I've not faced any issues, virus or other things in Android. If you want lag free Android just don't buy Samsung phones. Sony and HTC are good examples. Their phones are very durable. Enjoy.

      Hey Guys! This is about the Nougat update for OnePlus 2. I would like to know if OnePlus 2 would get Nougat update or not.

      If Yes when would that be?

          Anonymous, 05 Feb 2017So isn't it easier to buy an iPhone?The answer is No.

          Each phone has its factors to be obtained:

          1- Design
          2- Connectivity
          3- Availability
          4- Price
          5- Specific functionality
          6- Environment of usage
          7- Services

          ------

          1- People has different point of view about what is beautiful or not.
          2- Some people rely on transferring data via Bluetooth or wired ways of data transfer
          3- Some markets are legally allowed to sell many brands, some are not.
          4- One 200$ unlocked phone if swapped 5 times during 2.5 year, will meet the base price of another phone which is 800$ (Base 200$ will be reduced during the time interval)
          5- OTG is a function which is only available in Android. The use of this function for instance is as follow:

          The Best Camera Phone is way behind a Super Zoom Bridge Camera.
          When you want to reach the best possible quality out of a natural scenery, You will use your Super Zoom Bridge Gear instead of any other phones in order to crop the scene optically and take the photograph with most details in it.
          With a micro SD card which is inside the camera by its converter to SD, Photos will be stored there.
          A regular micro USB or Type C memory reader will send your photos to the handset.
          It is a way of instant accessibility.
          No need to carry a laptop
          No need to buy rare cheap Wi-Fi support Bridge Camera
          Only use the function to share the photograph with anyone you like, instantly.

          6- In a workplace when everyone use phones for documentation and computers which are there aim to store documents, that almost are weak and outdated, there is no room for iTunes or any other client to work with; So, a micro SD card in such environment is a jewel. Phones without micro SD will face difficulties for drivers.

          7- Some companies have better after sales services than others. In this aspect, the warranty of the handset will tell you what is good or bad.

              No need to convince me by any pics or anything. I use all these systems on daily basis and am aware of pros and cons. I understand this and I do not critisize any OS and pricing. Price tag has lot put into it apart from just raw materials.

                    My question is simple : when we will ever see an official GSMArena apps on playstore or appstore?

                      That's great. I would like to get in contact with that hot guy of yours who takes the selfies. You know, the short black hair, slim attractive eyes guy XD

                      Besides my forceful hit on your innocent boy, it's a good thing you get in contact with us.
                      And I have a question, since smartphone socs become smaller and smaller, isn't this worrisome about their performance?

                        Why don't you put more beautiful pictures of smartphones in the "pictures" section? increase the number of the pictures , resolution, and provide a download box to download them,
                        Is it possible for you to do it?

                                It would be great if you guys add NAND (internal storage) speed and performance tests. Many other sites have started including it and it's very helpful to judge a phones performance.
